On E85 my non-intercooled 210 leaves me with oil temps between 200 (crusing around town) and 220 (highway at 75mph). This is in Indiana with 70-90f summers.
You need some heat in the oil to burn off water.... You don't want your temps sitting under 200f in my opinion. An oil cooler would certainly put me down this low.
If not running E85 you can expect a bit hotter oil -- maybe 5-10f.
So long story short... You don't need an oil cooler for the street with this kit unless you live in a hot climate and notice very high oil temps (230+)

Here is where I subtly note that the motor begins to sound different when your oil temp is 260....
